Meursault
Tillets
After a cold and dry start to the year, temperatures rose quickly at the end of March, triggering a rapid resumption of the growing cycle. A few morning frosts impacted part of the vineyard at the end of April but without major damage. The flowering period takes place in a few days at the beginning of June in superb weather. The summer is hot and sunny but delivers some welcome storm rain to help the plant enter the veraison stage. The harvest takes place at the beginning of September with ideal weather and impeccable health quality of the grapes.
Vineyard
Next to Narvaux and Les Clous, the terroir of Tillets covers old quarries. In the marly area of Meursault, the wine produced is more similar to the style of Puligny. The wine structure is elegant, floral and a little angular.
